Nice work Roger, it looks very stylish. Looking forward to this build.

At this point the only thing I can tell you is that the windshield will be flush mount fit, but done a little different than most.

I working on getting that Impala on our website today. We are just doing the interior and under hood sheetmetal work. It sits really nice with a big block.

Looks like it is destined for some kind of post apocalyptic action movie right now.

I just have to say, I really like what you guys have done with the body so far. I'm generally a fan of keeping things somewhat subtle so I was amazed at how you decided to flare the quarters, and extend everything into the doors to keep the proportions relatively stock looking. I'm sure when it is done there will people picking this car out of the crowd of 69 Camaros thinking that it is coolest/most badass, yet having no idea why. You've got a lot of cool ideas coming together here.

More pictures please :thumbsup:

That's all up to the customer, But trying to make SEMA with this car next year could be difficult. I have a few other cars coming together and I'm hoping to land at SEMA next year. We will see how things go.

Roger what is the tubing for on the windshield opening??

ironworks 11-23-2009 09:36 AM

We removed the Entire inner structure from the Body. The inside quarter panels, the inside of the sail panels and almost everything else and I did not want anything to move. By putting the structure on the outside we can have more work to work inside the car. Basically all we have there is the Rockers, Quarters, and roof with out any inside structure. We will be cutting the roof skin off the car to incorporate some design ideas and need everything to stay put.

And so people would ask if we were building this for MAD MAX 3. :D

Also you are too short to build cool cars.

LOL - that is exactly what i thought - plus I would hate to try to work on the engine. It almost needs a engine cover like in a van.

Yes Sir Kendall, The air will be supplied from a mock up nitrous bottle. The car sits so low I wanted to be able to change tires effortlessly. In short, its the most expensive "floor jack" I ever had to buy LOL
